What type of MPG should I expect

[Oneuglynerd]

First post guys but I thought I could gain some insight here. I have a 1996 FL-60 With 5.9 and six speed manual, 3.58 rear end. Any ideas what type of mpg I might get if I were to use it as a car hauler. I have a 4 car trailer the truck trailer with load combo would go up to 40k. Is this too much or am I going to be able to keep up with traffic and get between 8-10mpg. Thanks for the help.

I have a friend with an fl70, 122inch sleeper and a two car enclosed trailer. Can't remember the exact length of it but it does have probably around 10 feet more than the two cars take up. He says he gets about 10mpg.

Chances are the FL70 has an ISC (8.3) in it, not an ISB (5.9).

The FL60 with the ISB is too small. I would at least get an FL70 with an ISC for anything over 26k. But I think in the other post 14wheeler mentioned something different.
